Yes, it’s really me! I’ve been painting lots of florals lately. Flowers have always been outside my wheelhouse. I’ve painted them in still lifes, in a more realistic/illustrative style, but always felt they were foreign objects that I didn’t really understand. I have the blackest thumb around and can’t even grow them! (Though I am determined to try to change that next year…) I wanted to take on a new challenge this summer as well as do more watercolor work, so I combined the two. I’ve been purchasing flowers every week, and working toward finding my own expressive style by filling a sketchbook with studies, and doing watercolor paintings from these weekly bouquets. I think I’m really going to enjoy painting florals when the winter chill makes it hard for me to get outside for plein air work.

I spent two days painting this little waterfall on location, and then a bit of time tweaking it in the studio. Finally I’m happy with it! It’s all varnished and ready for a new home.
Don’t forget that my show opening is this Sunday, September 30, from 3-5pm at the Hendrick Hudson Library, 185 Kings Ferry Road, Montrose NY. Hope to see you there! If you can’t make it, the show runs until October 28. This painting and many more recent works, including some not yet on my website, will be on display.
